Abstract

This paper proposes an intelligent mtoring  system lor teaching math for the students in the prep schools. The system was not designed from scratch, but it was developed by modifying n a certain tutoring system called the intelligent tutoring system for electric circuit exercising. The system contains a set of modules. The concentration here will be on the student model and the students bugs diagnosis. The student model includes all the aspects of the students behavior and knowledge that have repercussions for his performance and learning The system points out the students bugs. Also, it determines the burgs reasoning (how and why the buys occurred) The bugs diagnosis is done by using hypothesis generation and hypothesis verifying modules The system employs the artificial intelligence concepts and methods live monitoring the students performance, Tracking errors and offering problem solving advises. Also, the system evaluates the students quantitatively and qualitatively The system was implemented on the IBM/PCUsing the prolog language for the math domain.
